  • Today we're doing a deep dive on my favourite gemstone Tourmaline!
    Tourmaline is a unique stone because it comes it the widest range of colors, saturations and you can even find bi-colored and try colored specimens.
    Because there are so many different colors, we will go through them along with some of the more popular options such as chrome (green), sunset (orange), rubellite (red), Paraiba (turquiose), seafoam (blue green) and even watermelon tourmaline! For each gemstone we will give approximate market prices for each color.
    We will also cover the different optical phenomena's such as cat's eye and pleochroism.
    If you are looking to create a custom jewel or to source a tourmaline, you can always send me an inquiry at info@fineandflux.com and I will be happy to help.

      I wish you can have another episodes about Lab grown rubies and sapphires. I do not want to shell a hell load of money for rubies and sapphire like thousands and thousands, I find it more practical for Lab grown and enjoying its inclusion free gemstone rather than habing natural earth mined with lots of inclusions and struggling to find a high quality that you have to spend sooo much only a a carat or two

    Tourmalines are sometimes underappreciated, probably because they are often used as a budget replacement for more expensive stones. But their own colour range is unmatched. Like those hot pink ones that you can sometimes get with both orange and purple glow? Absolutely stunning!

    Why didn’t you say indicolite for the blue but used “sapphire” blue?

    • @GeoRockNerd
      @GeoRockNerd Місяць тому +1

      That’s what I was wondering too, indicolite is my favorite! And they didn’t mention dravite or petrol - yellow/gold/brown, verdelite - green, achroite - colorless etc. In geology we differentiate more than in gemology, I guess.

    • @donmacquarrie9161
      @donmacquarrie9161 Місяць тому +1

      because names for gemstones are REALLY important for marketing and retailing them.....some people won't buy Zircon because they immediately think of "fake" diamonds or cubic zirconias....ppl won't buy Zoisite because it sounds similar to "suicide"-so it's renamed "tanzenite".....The problem with the name Indicolite is that most ppl don't know what that is - whereasif you say "sapphire" blue tourmaline - their ears perk up instantly

    • @Jackaroo.
      @Jackaroo. 27 днів тому +1

      @@donmacquarrie9161 that’s a good explanation. Indicolite is growing in notoriety though so it will probably be more recognizable to people as time goes by.

    This is what I’ve been looking for. I recently gambled on a massive tourmaline matrix cluster 35 some pounds and the gamble paid off. I would truly love to get your opinion on it. I think origins Madagascar or Brazil.

    • @donmacquarrie9161
      @donmacquarrie9161 Місяць тому

      It all depends on cut color clarity. pure clear tourmaline is extremely rare -however the retail market price suffers because white gem stones are always compared and graded second rate to diamonds.

    5:45 that's not really an attractive paraiba tourmaline color I doubt it is worth $30,000 dollars not even a few thousand dollars.
